lateral movements are magnified, compared to cars where the humans ride lower.
the increased movements are more uncomfortable.

Akala ko mas relax ang suv kasi di mo maramdaman mga little humps and potholes.

partly true... the new everest soaks the little stuff with ease... while the fort is jarring.. it really depends on which vehicle...

It depends on what SUV you're driving/riding. Those PPVs are not really that comfortable compared to more premium SUVs.

Try riding on an Expedition or Patrol Royale. We used an Armada (same platform as the Patrol Royale) as a rental in California last May and it was quite comfortable.

Going back to topic, I hope HondaPH will offer test drives for the new Accord.

I wonder if the new accord already fixed the oil dilution issue with their turbocharged engines in other models...

Oooh I just missed the mark. It’s even higher! The 1.5L is priced at P2.288M and the 2.0L seems nowhere to be found... That’s Honda for you.

WTF! 2.288M for the base 1.5L turbo model? It makes a whole lot of sense to get the Mazda6 2.5T at 2.25M.

LexusPH does not sell the ES250 locally. The ES350 is priced at almost 4.4M.

The IS350 base model is priced at more than 2.8M.

Pogi ng accord.

Just don't like the faux tail pipes. Looks cheap. They could've integrated it properly.

Pogi, no question. Performance, yes. The Accord has been a perennial member of the 10Best in Car&Driver.

They should have kept those dual tail pipes for the 2.0T model. Putting so much stuff on the 1.5T model is just like overselling the base model.

However, if that 2.3M price was meant for the 2.0T model, it could have been more competitively priced. Mazda will surely be smiling from ear to ear with their relatively cheaper Mazda6 2.5T and 2.2D.
